THE EVOLUTION OF COMMUNICATION AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN EDUCATION

Abstract

The present work aims to describe, from an analysis of what is in the literature on the introduction and evolution of communication and information technologies in education (ICT), thus building a historical record of these technologies. The project is justified by the relevance of the theme and the importance that ICT represented in the pandemic period, practically saving education from two years of social isolation, leaving millions of students out of school, enabling, even with some difficulties encountered by teachers and students, the continuity of pedagogical activities, minimizing the educational losses of a period never seen in the history of education,  it is clear that these ICTs should be incorporated into the pedagogical projects of the courses, since Ifes has a Moodle academic environment (Dynamic Modular Object-oriented Learning Environment) available that enables pedagogical activities for teachers and students. In the face of so many digital technological innovations that have emerged in recent times, it is possible to verify that digital communication and information technologies have become a fertile field for technology companies, developers, researchers in the field of technologies and education, since they have seen technologies as a tool capable of providing a transformation of teaching-learning methods and practices that are important for the achievement of pedagogical objectives,  thus not diminishing the role of educators, or even replacing it, but allowing some tasks and functions to be expanded and diversified, and it should also be noted that TDCI contemplates other sectors, becoming multidimensional with roots spread throughout society. The legislation that governs the introduction and use of technological equipment in the classroom has advanced and stimulated its use in everyday school activities.
